Walking to and from school is a terrific way to spend time with your kids while also encouraging safe and healthy habits.
Here are a few things you can do to make it safer for your children to walk:
• Talk to your kids about being aware of their surroundings when they're on the road.
• Plan and practise your route to school so that you can take advantage of pedestrian crossings whenever possible.
• Always keep your child's hand in yours. Children require your assistance in recognising threats such as vehicles exiting driveways. They are also prone to becoming quickly sidetracked and wandering into oncoming traffic.
· Meet your child near the school gate rather than across the street.
• Describe why the crossing point you've chosen is the safest option.
• Encourage your child to STOP! HEY, LOOK! HEY, HEY, HEY, HEY THINK! Every time they cross the road, they double-check until they are safely across.
• Explain why they should stop, look, listen, and think before crossing a driveway, road, or parking lot to them.
